stale

ugh
i need something to do
i've been in this house for far too long
i need to get out, go somewhere, do something, ...SOMETHING. ya know?
i feel like i'm waiting for my life to start again, like i'm in limbo or something. bleh. who ever said summer was fun anyway?
ok, maybe that's a bit much. summer is fun i guess. but it would be more fun if i had something to DO

but hey on the positive, i'm doing some work for my dad tomorrow and doing some work in FW next week. yay.

food for thought

one of the most brilliant writer/orators since Paul said this:

“To love at all is to be vulnerable. Love anything, and your heart will certainly be wrung and possibly broken. If you want to make sure of keeping it intact, you must give your heart to no one, not even to an animal. Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements; lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in that casket- safe, dark, motionless, airless--it will change. It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable.”

..that's C.S. Lewis, by the way.

verse of the day comes from the movie August Rush. Good movie, despite what the critics say. anyway. i dont know the title of the song actually, but in the movie its where the main character goes into a church and sees/hears the church choir rehearsing. btw, that little girl is mad crazy!

gonna break down these walls, gonna give my all, yeah

(hang in there with me)
sometimes it take a different kind of love to raise a child
(so dont give up) so dont give up
(when pressures come down)
sometimes it takes a different kind of dream to make you smile
(so raise it up) raise it up
(hang in there with me)
sometimes it takes another's helping hand to show you the way
(so dont give up, when pressures comes down)
sometimes it seems impossible, that's why we pray
(so raise it up)

the call

yarr
today was quite awesome.
yay for family, and loved ones, and the like. super yay for a God who takes care of me way beyond what i could ever ask for. =D

today's verse is from The Call, by Regina Spektor. it's on the Narnia Prince Caspian soundtrack.

just because everything's changing
doesnt mean it's never been this way before

beautiful song. that line catches my attention

establishment

sooo
i hink i'm gonna start doing this thing
it's definitely been done before
not exactly an original idea, BUT
i still think its worth doing ^_^

so every time i make an entry, i'll try to include a verse of the day. verse being a scripture verse, or song lyrics, or a good quote, or some brilliant piece of shakespeare, or whatever i decide warrants being the verse of the day ^_^

in other news, i think i decided that i would like to sing for a band and call it Lullaby. mmhmm.

so today's verse belongs to one C. G. Bragdon. no title as of yet

Youre so good
You brought me from my worthless flesh
Showed me to hold onto nothing less
Than all you can imagine

What I'd give to show them
What their eyes let pass before them
How your heart can change theirs
And show them what they will not realize

Your passion's holding, never
Letting go what I give to you
My worth is shown through how you
Bring out in my what's worth seeing

No appeasing truths, tell me
What keeps my heart pounding
And why your truth is so appealing
And why I cant seem to express to you

<3
